Ausome Art
Project
Inspiration Thrives in Diverse Directions
Ausome Art Project is a vibrant six-month initiative that celebrates neurodivergent creativity across the Lower Mainland and Okanagan.
💡 Overview
The AUSOME ART Project is a joyful, inclusive art program designed especially for neurodivergent individuals who love to express themselves through creativity. Whether your child is a budding painter, a sensory explorer, or someone who simply finds joy in color and texture, this space is for them.
We believe art is a language of its own—and everyone deserves a place to speak it.
